Back

O2, Glucose

Front

Define cellular respiration.

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

Define photosynthesis.

Back

The process by which green plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

Front

What is the role of sunlight in photosynthesis?

Back

Sunlight provides the energy needed to drive the chemical reactions that convert CO2 and H2O into glucose.

Front

What is ATP and its significance in cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, produced during cellular respiration.

Front

Where does photosynthesis occur in plant cells?

Back

Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells.
